Marseille part euh

Marseille! We received countless warnings about visiting here, just mention the place anywhere but Marseille and watch the reaction.. Because of this we were totally paranoid and spent most of the walk from the station to our apartment with eyes peeled for the roving gangs of brigands sure to be descending upon us any second now. Ha! Apart from the greater number of homeless people begging, no problem. This was possibly due to it being April rather than July, not wandering down dark alley’s or flouting fist fills of euros about market areas.. so after the first day we relaxed enough to enjoy our stay.
